747 HDG knob question

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,I was wondering, does the 747 have a synchronize switch, so the heading will sync to the current heading being flown?

Sadly not.but it gives you something to do in the cruise between turning pages of the newspaper.It drifts off quite quickly when flying near the magnetic pole as variation changes rapidly.CheersJon

I've never even heard of a synchronize switch. What planes have it?On another note, Jon, good to see you posting. Hope everything is going well. :)

Cheers Mike,I keep having a quick look at the forums now and then,and occasionally have a go at the easier non controversial questions ;-)Jon
